Dufy's cheerful oils and watercolors depict events of the time period, including yachting scenes, sparkling views of the French Riviera, chic parties, and musical events. Dufy completed one of the largest paintings ever contemplated, a huge and immensely popular ode to electricity, the fresco La Fée Electricité for the 1937 Exposition Internationale in Paris. It is 32 feet high by 204 feet long.

Visitors to the Paris International Exposition of 1937 were shown a hymn to electricity in Dufy's mural, La Fee Electricite. The painting is 200 feet long and 33 feet high.
